Title: Psx2Central Nostaliga: Where are all the Oldies Now?
Post by: Avatarr on March 08, 2001, 01:34:03 AM
Staying true to the theme of "absence" and "the old times", I\'d like to point out other notable absences of other oldies. Its been a long time since I\'ve seen the following people:

Regent Webber
DolbyTone
SmallLady
Hawke
Waltel
Starr
PIE
and...
hrmmmm
time seems to have eroded my memmory...
I guess that\'ll be the list for now.

Where are they now...
*que nostalgic music*

I have seen posts by Hawke, SmallLady, Starr and DolbyTone recently (specially Hawke). But it\'s been a while since I\'ve seen Regent Weber. :(

I was thinking the same, where do these guys hang out, chrono left, Bobs_hardware and munchie dissapeared with no trace left.

We might see some of the oldies back around E3 or even some old fanboys!!

No no, good ole Bobbo is still here. Just take a look in off topic for example.

I\'ve seen Hawke around ( but he should post more often ;) ).

But I haven\'t seen onlinerat for ages; I joined about the time when he left.

Chainrxn; I have never seen him post a lot. Wonder what his post are like...?

I like this thread.. nostalgia... Wonder when someone will remember me in a thread like this? :)

DolbyTone
SmallLady
Hawke

These people still post here occasionally.

Actually, I KNOW where Wetwall is- He\'s frequantly posting a NintendoNation(for some odd reason). If you want to see him so bad then go there.

Post by: AlteredBeast on March 08, 2001, 02:01:28 PM
didn\'t one guy go and join the army? who was that?

where is the onlinerat? havent seen him in ages!

Weltall created the post-Blast City board, I dont think it is doing too well.

havent seen Chai post recently either.

I thought SyxxKorn changed his name or something? and red did too? I couldn\'t stand either one of them either, both N fans, if you know what I mean.

Chrono made his own board, I actually talk to him very often on ICQ, funny since we used to argue so much, he has come to me for info before buying mostly any games for DC now. and I am gonna sign up for his board when he gets it up, as he is a very cool, smart individual.

I wouldve said Ironfist, but I saw him post the other day, so I was happy.

A good thing, or bad thing to some of you double-standard freeks out there, I will NEVER leave, hahaha! :)

SyxxKorn is not TheOneBillyGunn.

Red_XIII_1 is Vivi.

Bobs_Hardware, SmallLady, Hawke, DolbyTone, and Waspman still post, just not very much.

I haven\'t seen Regent Webber, Starr, Akira, Wetall, RGB, or PotatoCake in a long time.

Yeah, about a month ago, I fried my RAM (it was literally on fire :surprised).  That took about a week to replace (I had to make sure that the RAM was the only thing that fried).  Then about two weeks ago, my internet went down.  I had to find a different ISP.  But now I\'m back again, hopefully for a long time.

And Sweetleaf. I haven\'t seen her around either. She seems to come and go as she pleases though. Sort of Mysterious. I know BobbyHardware still talks to Weltall on AIM. He should stop by and say "hi."

The post count is everything to you eh? Once too often I\'ve seen you remark people that they\'re not posting enough. What\'s up with that? I like reading stuff here too, and I only answer if I really do have something to say. Unlike some others.

I post as often as I feel like, sorry m8t.

No offence Hawke, I was just saying that I like your posts, and as you\'re a fellow finn I would like to discuss with you more often.

But we can do it easier. Do you have icq?

( btw. Post-count ISN\'T everything to me... but I would just like to discuss with you more often here :) that\'s all )

Long Live psx2Central!
Title: Revised List of Missed Oldies:
Post by: Avatarr on March 09, 2001, 05:35:48 AM
As I have pointed out earlier, time has eroded my memmory of the good old days and as a result, I\'ve left out some very important people out of the list. Since then, many have pointed out the people worthy of remembrance and I\'ve also remembered a few:

Oyuki
Ryu
Sweetleaf
and that ever excentric cute little rat
OnLineRat aka Ratty, inventor of O_o , the "stoned" smiley
and then there\'s
Spuds
Munchie!

Codemaster would\'ve been on the list too, but his story is much the same as Hawk\'s. Codey\'s most recent post was a 3dfx ass kiss, consistent with his well known 3dfx alignment. (BIG RED FLAG TO ATTRACT CODEMASTER TO POST)

Anyhoo, I thought I\'d move this topic forward, from the recollection of old names, to actual old times.
Does anyone remember the huge "Kick" thread?
(A thread, which I am proud to declare, I started.)
Title: Psx2Central Nostaliga: Where are all the Oldies Now?
Post by: nO-One on March 09, 2001, 05:39:57 AM
I remember the kick thread.I think I was still a lurker then.Sadly I never looked at it :( not until it had reached like 10 pages but then I was tired and didn\'t feel like reading through all the pages.

Mmmm, seems like we lost quite a few people during the \'Downtime\' that the forum had a while ago. It\'s sad to see
people go, maybee there will be a great reunion sometime. that would be cool.

Hell i\'m even missing Docwiz, Must be goin\' MaD :D

Whatever happened to that dapper young man IcebergSlim?
Now he was a legend for the ages. I think that the people of the future will remember him as a titan among men.

Maybe he went to develop a cure for aids.
Maybe he decided to feed the starving children throughout the US.
Maybe he changed his name.

Whatever he did. He is still the greatest poster of all time.

Hey, anybody remember Akramh?

Where has he gone?

What about Phill?

I think these names weren\'t mentioned in this post earlier so I thought of adding them.
Title: Psx2Central Nostaliga: Where are all the Oldies Now?
Post by: Metal_Gear_Ray on March 10, 2001, 08:23:40 AM
There are many more like

FrackinKubbus (sp?)
I haven\'t seen jaggies in a while
Akira
IvoryGrail (he made really cool logos, chek the splash page of this site!very nice!)


and some old flamers

Don diego de la dip****
The orginal N-player (not the fake one posting right
 now)

Segakid
Next genner
playsaturn 2
rammestein

I miss all these doods, maybe thats the reason why the forums is kinda slow/empty these days

I miss Oyuki too.  I wonder what happened to them, but they left about the same time that Regent Weber left.  Also, Ken can lick my balls.  He was just another one of Don Diego De La Mancha\'s aliases just to piss me off.  He has since been banned, good riddance.  ##Racer## still posts, just not as often, people have and sometimes get, lives ya know? ;)  Codemaster posts conservatively, like maybe once a month.  He has a posts in the off-topic somewhere.  One dollar to anyone who can find it (yah, right).

wtf?  I thought I had been posting MUCH more frequently.  I hang out more in the main forum, but I make my rounds to everywhere.  Hell, just take a look at my "Get Bounced" Bouncer review :)

finally found a thread i could reply to, even if it is a little old

well, i miss Phil the most, good ol\' Kiwi...he said he might not come back to us until PS2 goes online  :( for shame, for shame

Ryu, geez, never see you around  ;)

mm hardly ever posts, although he occasionally chimes in  with a beauty

Potatocake just got sick of coming here

i miss Waspy, (even though hes stil around) he has good taste in music...just like nO-One has good taste too

ahh, come back Phil, you and me used to be the kings here, together we can take back our thrown (just joking)

i tell you what im nostalgic about, me and Aaron battling it out in the *Kick* topic, that was fun

Post by: Aaron on March 12, 2001, 08:52:35 AM
Well Bobby, I\'m not sure it was much of a battle, as I distinctly remember beating the crap out of you with every post. :)
Those 500 word responses got a bit crazy towards the end didn\'t they? Staying up until 3am just to get the last word in. That was insane.
Title: It wasn\'t spam afteral
Post by: Avatarr on March 13, 2001, 01:37:18 AM
Ah yes, indeed..... \'Twas unfortunate that Webby had to bring it to an aubrupt end by stabbing me in the heart with a mystic dagger, effectively sending me back the burning hells that spawned me (not copied from Diablo2). Or was that before all the Bobo vs Aaron started... or was the Bobo vs Aaron the catalist for the summoning of me....

Time has indeed eroded my memory of those times, but they were definatley not the times of span. At least not in the kick thread. I remember other spinof\'s trying to emulate the kick thread\'s success, encouraging one line posts to put up the reply count. "Continue the story" the title head would say. And that popular but pointless, "PS2 Countdown!".

It is indeed unfortunate that the original Kick thread did not survive the first server move because of its sheer bulk. I long for the day when we can all see a similar phenomena grip Psx2Central once again.........
